has anyone ever purchased a slipstreamer windshield, and if so how do you like it. thinking about going with the enterprise make myself. don't like the price of the triumph touring windshield. why are triumph accessories so expensive? their leather saddlebags are ******.

My first windscreen was a slipstreamer viper. It was very good for what it cost. I replaced it with a larger one later.

Hey Dave...
Just wanted to say hello to you. I haven't seen you on here before. Where abouts in Stl are you? I'm near 141 and 30 in the fenton area.
Good luck with the windshield search.

I tried the slipstreamer tombstone and it sucked. If you're looking for something between a flyscreen and a full roadster screen, get a Windvest.

I have the slipstreamer SS-30, the 21 is perfect for blocking the wind, but way to big. More like a sail on the highway. I dropped to the 17 and is alot nicer, with lowers. But to be honest they let in to much air around the headlight. I'm gonna try the Memphis shields and see if they are any better. So to be honest not real happy with the Slipstreamer
